A small glass bead has been charged to +20 nC. A small metal ball bearing 1.0 cm above the bead feels a 0.018 N downward electri
Alla [95]

Answer:

q=1\times10^{-8}C

Explanation:

Let the charge on the ball bearing is q.

charge on glass bead, Q = 20 nC = 20 x 10^-9 C

Force between them, F = 0.018 N

Distance between them, d = 1 cm = 0.01 m

By use of Coulomb's law in electrostatics

F=\frac{KQq}{d^{2}}

By substituting the values

0.018=\frac{9\times10^{9}\times20\times10^{-9}q}{0.01^{2}}

q=1\times10^{-8}C

Thus, the charge on the ball bearing is q=1\times10^{-8}C

I have a voltage source of 12V but a light that only burns at 5V. The lamp works on 18 mA. Calculate the resistance that you EXT
ratelena [41]

Answer:

The resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

Explanation:

Given;

Voltage source, E = 12 V

Voltage rating of the lamp, V = 5 V

Current through the lamp, I = 18 mA

Extra voltage or potential drop, IR =  E- V  

                                                    IR = 12 V - 5 V = 7 V

The resistance that will provide this potential drop (7 V) is calculated as follows:

IR = V

R = \frac{V}{I} = \frac{7 \ V}{18 \times 10^{-3} A} \ = 388.89 \ ohms

Therefore, the resistance that will provide this potential drop is 388.89 ohms.

The maximum height a typical person can jump is about 60cm (0.6m). By how much does the gravitational potential energy increase
sasho [114]

The gravitational potential energy will increase by 423.36 J

<h3>How to determine the potential energy at ground level</h3>
  • Mass (m) = 72 kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Height (h) = 0 m
  • Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) =?

PE = mgh

PE₁ = 72 × 9.8 × 0

PE₁ = 0 J

<h3>How to determine the potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m)</h3>
  • Mass (m) = 72 kg
  • Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²
  • Height (h) = 0.6 m
  • Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) =?

PE = mgh

PE₂ = 72 × 9.8 × 0.6

PE₂= 423.36 J

<h3>How to determine the change in potential energy </h3>
  • Potential energy at ground level (PE₁) = 0 J
  • Potential energy at 60 cm (0.6 m) (PE₂) = 423.36 J
  • Change in potential energy =?

Change in potential energy = PE₂ - PE₁

Change in potential energy = 423.36 - 0

Change in potential energy = 423.36 J
